Paula had recorded the fastest time of any British female in the past year, so had every right to be selected. The Olympic marathon last time was won by a lady, Dita, who was much the same age as Paula is now, and not considered a favourite for the event by any means.Freya Murray has now been given the opportunity to represent GB, and hopefully will do us proud.
Paula has often already supported younger athletes, and you only have to listen to someone like Mo Farah to appreciate that this included both advice and financial help.
I wish her all the best in anything she chooses to do.
